Rayasi has been very good mostly. Maybe him and Flanders should start next week.
I can’t understand why they don’t start the canes look so much more threatening with those 2 starting

Flanders just showed why he should be starting. Wake up Holland you dingbat.
The back row was far and away better last week. But even Flanders at 6 would make a much stronger side. The need more dynamic attaching players and Prinsep and Blackwell both fall well short

@chris I don’t think any Canes fan understands why they don’t start. Holland has his favourites despite obvious form.
I love Chris Gibbes but I think he might also be part of the problem selecting 'workers' rather than those with an extra level of ability.

You maybe right I don’t understand selection within the Canes it’s seems it’s pretty obvious to Us

Chris Gibbes was a Magpie and he doesn't even play favourites to get our players in the team.

He may have worn the jersey, but he's no magpie. He's a TAC boy.

Agree. Canes really need to at least look for a new forwards coach as Gibbes likes plodders (or workers) too much. It isn't working and never well. The team will win a few games but will never win the competition.

It’s not zero sum, he can be both. Although he’s a dirty Cane at the moment.

If they considered Blackwell as a 6, it might be OK because then he'd have to compete appropriately, but as a lock it's just de-sizing their pack and they can't stay in games with a backrow and loosies of one lock, 2 sixes (neither that good) and two opensides.
The fact that Flanders was benched is another ridiculous decision, but it won't address the key problem.

@canes4life said in Crusaders v Hurricanes:
@chris it’s frustrating as a supporter seeing two mediocre players get picked time and time again. Nothings going to change until they do a complete clean out of the organisation.
It’s funny that whenever I advocate the same you don your armour and mount your steed to defend them because I’m coming from a Magpies focus. 🤣

@gt12 100% agree and it’s the reason we lost control of the match last week. Once Scrafton got injured and we were suddenly left with Prinsep and Blackwell at lock shows we have really issues in that department. Pathetic really considering there are plenty of players out there we could have signed that would have done a shit tone better.
